What tuxai.dev Is
tuxai.dev is a practical reference for Linux and AI tooling, built for developers and sysadmins who are tired of translating apt to dnf to pacman every time they switch machines or distros. Most guides here cover the same task across Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora/RHEL and Arch side by side, so you don't have to guess whether a guide written for one distro applies to yours.
The site started as a focused project to fill a gap I kept running into myself: scattered, outdated, or single-distro guides for tasks that are common across the whole Linux ecosystem, installing distros, setting up AI tools locally, configuring servers, and using the terminal effectively.
Who Writes tuxai.dev
I'm JM Carreira. I've used Linux since 2008, and since 2021 it has been my main system, every day, for both work and play. When an article has a "Tested on" box, I ran the steps on that machine: a Lenovo Tiny with an Intel Core i7-6700T, 16 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD. The other articles are written from official documentation and upstream sources. Read more about me.
How This Content Is Made
I'm upfront about this: articles on tuxai.dev are drafted with AI assistance, and I review and test them before publishing. In practice, that means:
- Technical steps and commands are cross-checked against official documentation (distro release notes, tool changelogs, upstream install guides) rather than relying on memory alone.
- Version-specific details, distro release numbers, package names, tool behavior, are verified at the time of writing and updated when they go stale.
- Content is reviewed before and after publishing, and corrected when errors are found or reported.
This isn't a substitute for testing commands yourself before running them on a system you care about, especially anything involving sudo, disk operations, or firewall/network changes: see the Terms of Use for the full disclaimer. If you find something that's wrong, outdated, or unclear, I want to know: see Contact below.
What I Don't Do
I don't publish sponsored placements disguised as independent recommendations. Where a post includes an affiliate link, it's disclosed at the link and in the Terms of Use: commercial relationships don't change which tools or services I recommend.
Corrections and Feedback
Found a command that doesn't work, a version that's out of date, or something unclear? Tell me at contact@tuxai.dev. Corrections get fixed, not ignored.
